    1 tbsp. hot water
    1/2 cup butter, softened
    1/4 cup shortening
    1 cup granulated sugar
    1/2 cup packed brown sugar
    1 egg
    2 cups all-purpose flour
    1 tsp. baking powder

    Recipe



    Dissolve 1 1/2 tbsp. espresso in hot water in large bowl. Add butter, shortening, sugars and egg. Beat with electric mixer on medium speed until fluffy. Beat in flour, baking powder, 1 tsp. espresso, cinnamon and salt on low speed. Divide dough in half. Shape each half into a roll, 10-in. long. Wrap each roll with plastic wrap and refrigerate 30 minutes.

    Prepare Espresso Coating; roll each roll of dough in coating (reserve any remaining coating). Rewrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 30 minutes longer.

    Heat oven to 375¼F. Cut each roll into 3/8-in. slices. Place about slices 2-in. apart on ungreased cookie sheet. Sprinkle with remaining coating. Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until edges are light brown. Cool slightly; remove from cookie sheet to wire rack.

    ESPRESSO COATING:
    Mix sugar and espresso on a large plate or piece of waxed paper.
